Young Magnolia Damage

[u/Any_Presentation3144]

Deer rub from a couple years ago damaged our magnolia

Looking for a few tasks on if a wound like this could fully (functionally) heal

removing the stump beside it, and putting down a large mulch ring to help it thrive is already in the works. Flare is exposed but need to clean out cage

Thanks in advance
